21:46:40 Any initial reactions? Interesting? Worrysome? Anything else? 21:47:21 KATHYW: This is interesting. we are seeing convergence and people are already trying to figure out whether their work is a doc or app or software or Web content 21:48:02 DAVIDM: I have felt this way for a long time === this is all merging together and this would be a good development 21:49:13 BRUCE: We have talked about this at Access Board and are supportive of efforts to bring common thought together on this. 21:50:26 ADAM: Is this related to the exel and word doc aspects? 21:51:01 JUDY: Related but broader. That was about are those Web Content. THis is about Docs and Software - so related but different. 21:51:47 LORETTA: other discussion was about whether excel or word were web docs. THis is about application of WCAG to things that are NOT web content 21:52:00 bengt, do you have any comment? 21:52:09 -Gregg_Vanderheiden 21:52:10 scribe: David 21:53:02 Adam: will think about the idea of WCAG covering more than web content, and the idea of a task force under WCAG to address this. 21:54:01 Bengt: it makes sense the the lines between content and applications have this relationship. 21:54:42 ack me 21:54:43 Judy: asks for members to forward questions 21:54:51 -Judy 21:54:53 -Shadi 21:56:11 Loretta: will leave survey from Shadi open to comment on the Evaluation task force 22:14:58 Topic: 22:15:41 s/Topic:/Topic: Failure of Success Criterion 1.3.1 due to using elements within data tables that obscure structural relationships 22:17:11 Resolve to wait on acting on it, asking member to comment... some concerns about it being too wide, and tha some of the failures are more of annoyances than actual barriers. 22:18:01 Topic: F69 : Failure of Success Criterion 1.4.4 when resizing visually rendered text up to 200 percent causes the text, image or control to be clipped, truncated or obscured 22:25:40 Action: David to look at understanding 1.4.5 to add an explanation that anything that can be zoomed passes... 22:25:40 Sorry, amibiguous username (more than one match) - David 22:25:40 Try using a different identifier, such as family name or username (eg. dmacdona, dtodd2) 22:26:07 Action: David_MacDonald to look at understanding 1.4.5 to add an explanation that anything that can be zoomed passes... 22:26:07 Sorry, couldn't find user - David_MacDonald 22:26:27 Action: DavidMacDonald to look at understanding 1.4.5 to add an explanation that anything that can be zoomed passes... 22:26:27 Sorry, couldn't find user - DavidMacDonald 22:27:00 Action: dmacdona to look at understanding 1.4.5 to add an explanation that anything that can be zoomed passes... 22:27:01 Created ACTION-168 - Look at understanding 1.4.5 to add an explanation that anything that can be zoomed passes...
